Looks great man. Well done.

19" Fox Motorsport MS007 in Carbon Grey. Tyres are Continental 295/35/19 and 275/30/19 - wide wheels and tyres, but sit perfect and lots of grip, needed for the 35is.
Hope to get a photo next to yours at a meet.

No trouble, I had Fizzmo bulbs on my E92, so learnt on that. It does help if you have slim skinny long fingers. Took me a few mins per side.

The funny thing with Fizzmo is he will contact you and offer better bulbs which are not on eBay, I took him up on the offer but he had already dispatched my order so I stuck with my original order:
Hi there
Thank you for your order.
We can confirm your 80w led kit will be dispatched today in our 5pm mail collection.
Did you know we have 2 brighter options in our range?
80w CREE kit (40w per bulb) £54.99 (Your order)
160w COB kit (80w per bulb) £69.99
160w CREE kit (80w per bulb) £74.99
Picture attached of 80w and 160w kit bulbs.
The 80w kits are a good output and similar to the factory halogen bulbs (70w) - they work well in most situations and can be seen in daylight. The 160w kits above can be seen clearly in all situations including direct sunlight.
The 160w kits have similar output to market leaders MTEC and LUX angel eye bulbs which rrp £120-200. Our 160w COB kit is also one of the few in the market to work on the new 7 series without additional wiring.
If there is anything else we can help with, please do not hesitate to ask.
Best Regards
Fizzmo

Thanks for that. So you're happy with 80W (2x 40W)? I'd be happy with the OEM LCI brightness.
Are these the ones I need?

I'd say a 10 min job, you can see vids on YouTube on how to remove the old ones.

They are OK, but but the inner rings are not as bright as the outer rings... or was it the other way around.
For sure they are better than the yellow stock ones, but if I could I would've gone for the top ones, curious to see how much better and brighter they are.

What are the MS007s like for cracks? They look quite fragile despite looking brilliant on your car!
Stretch said:
Yes, an original part. Looks like you can get them on eBay for £90 now. Just remember to brake off one tab, you will see which one.
I really look forward to seeing these. He is normally good at replacing stuff, I had the wrong clip on my E92 bulb and he sent out another.gusTaco said:

I ran them on my E92 330i for a time; a bigger and heavier car, no issues, and been fine so far on the Z (touch wood, or in this case alloy)

hi, do you have their e-mail address? thanksred_35is said:
I wrote them to this address [email protected], but no answer yet
I'd like to find a way to put carbon fibre effect tips on the exhausts. The stock ones look shite. But it is a cutting job on the exhaust to do and I am not sure I want to do that. Not sure Machine Monkey does ones for the 35is that slip over and tighten from underneath.
Sorry if I'm hijacking the thread but there were a few questions about the Fizzmo LED's.
I've purchased the 160w (75 quid) - one of them was faulty which I'm on the process of returning.
I can't say I'm very pleased with the results I'm afraid. The second halo ring barely lights up, though it looks ok with the Xenons on.
